September Fall/Autumn Phone Wallpapers

Here are three monthly phone wallpapers with matching desktop wallpapers! I created versions starting on Monday and Sunday so you can pick the one you use more often!

To download:

mobile: for the best quality, click on the link to the version you would like below, wait for it to load and then simply hold down on the image you would like, press ‘save image’, head to your settings, change wallpaper and select it from your photos.

one monday / one sunday

two monday / two sunday

three monday / three sunday

laptop: right click, save image, add image to a phone folder that syncs from your laptop to phone, use airdrop on iPhone, or send to yourself via messages/email/etc.

I hope you enjoy using these and if so, I’d love to see them in action!  Feel free to tag me #emmastudies in any photos you upload on Tumblr, Instagram or Twitter. If there are any problems or errors, please let me know via my inbox.

Whilst these wallpapers are free of charge, it would be amazing of you to check out my Ko-fi account! :-)

College/University notebooks on my Etsy

I made these notebooks for myself (only four weeks late into the semester) and a few people liked the layout so I decided my make them available to download! I’ve done them with lined and grid options but both contain the additional pages and covers. The tabs are to divide notes from the weekly readings, your lecture and class/tutorial notes, assessment planners, dotted note paper and a to do list! :-)
